2,334 PointsMissing return in a function
Hi,
I'm getting an error but I don't know why. Copied what was done in the course but I'm getting "Missing return in a function expected to return [String: AnyObject] when the return type is specified. Why?
class PlistConverter {
class func dictionaryFromFile(resource: String, ofType type: String) throws -> [String : AnyObject] {
guard let path = NSBundle.mainBundle().pathForResource(resource, ofType: type) else {
throw InventoryError.InvalidResource
}
guard let dictionary = NSDictionary(contentsOfFile: path),
let castDictionary = dictionary as? [String : AnyObject] else {
throw InventoryError.ConversionError <-- Error here
}
return castDictionary
}
}
Copied what was done in the course but I'm getting an error "Missing return in a function expected to return [String: AnyObject] when the return type is specified. Why?
Thanks,
Julien
